.
The next day, we got into Orc Car and drove to the coast.
Orc Car’s transformation had to be done manually, so we needed to get out of the car and did the work manually.
I longed for a function where the car could transform with a single push of button, but the mechanisms that were required to realize that covered a lot of grounds. It would also decrease the toughness of the car frame and increased the weight. Furthermore the complicated mechanisms would make the failure rate skyrocket and various breakdowns would occur along the way.
Something like transforming and combining robot could have thing like hand flying out from thruster or the like, but even that would completely become a dead weight when the robot was flying, in the first place could the thruster function properly when such thing was jammed into the thruster? There was no end to such question.
And so, Orc Car’s transformation to aquatic mode was done by hand.
「I’m sleepyyy」
Kururu rubbed her eyes.
「You can sleep inside the car.」
「Uuu, I want to ascertain the result of my hard work yesterday.」
The aquatic mode that Orc Car originally had was intended for something short term like crossing lake inland, so it was necessary to modify it to be able to endure long trip across the sea.
The airtightness was improved, in addition we added a bit modification to a part of the engine. Its weight was lightened even more. In exchange of the decreased defensive power, we managed to secure floating power and also increased the speed.
I intended to do the modification for those alone, but Kururu said that she would help and wouldn’t take no as an answer.
For her it was also a form of training in order to obtain new knowledge.
Kururu could also use ki. There would be no problem even if she didn’t sleep for one or two days, but she had pulled all-nighter for several days to create the color printing machine. She also used her brain to the extreme for that job, so her limit was coming.
「Then do your best for just a bit more.」
The tires were turned sideways. The buoyancy of the Orc Car was increased with that.
And then the engine inside was switched. The rotation that was connected to the wheel was connected to the propeller at the back.
「It was hard making this large propeller. To think that something like this is necessary.」
「We are going to go through a long voyage after all.」
Before the modification I used small and thin propeller that could be folded. It was something that I could casually store at the luggage behind, but the propeller this time was something big that could be put in the luggage and had to be tied up on the roof.
The efficiency would be bad if the propeller wasn’t like this.
In addition the propeller was made from an alloy that combined multiple magic metals and it was shaped to have optimum shape to receive water current. It was an OOPart.
「It’s finished with this. Ork-san, please push it.」
「Yeah, get inside Tita and Kururu.」
I pushed the car and it floated on water.
It was sloppy to use human power to push the car for this part, but it couldn’t be helped due to the car’s design. Thank god this was a fantasy world that had magic.
In my previous life, this work would need heavy machinery to be done.
「Yosh」
It floated properly.
I walked on water and got into the car.
「Hey, Ork, you just did something impossible so casually just now.」
「This person, he walked on water normally and opened the door to enter inside. Even the back of his shoes isn’t wet. Just what’s going on?」
「Perhaps because he used water spirits to do that?」
「No, it’s ki. I spread out ki widely with the back of my foot as the center to hold on wide water surface area. There is no need to use magic for that. It’s a convenient technique to learn. You can easily cross the sea to another continent with this.」
The two of them were speechless.
「Just how delicate the control that is needed to do that?」
「I don’t feel like I’ll be able to do that though I understand the principle.」
「Without being able to do this, we won’t be able to go back if Orc Car sink you know? We are going to run back home in case the worst happen.」
Orc Car was a prototype. No, it was an experimental item. An otaku who I was close with once told me the difference between prototype and experimental item. He talked so passionately about it for perhaps an hour.
You could easily see hell when he talked about the topic of Gu●dam!
「……Uwa, this person is serious.」
Kururu made a very disagreeable expression.
It couldn’t be helped, guess I’d carry Kururu on my shoulder in the worst case.
「But, unexpectedly we might really be able to do that. You know, after all we have become stronger since Ork made love to us after all. Our ki has also increased and our control of it too.」
「We have already given up on being normal so easily huh.」(Kururu)
I started the magic engine.
By pouring magic power into it, the motor rotated and the propeller was turned by its driving force.
Orc Car rushed through the ocean.
「I was astonished when this car crossed the lake before this, but as expected the sea is different.」(Tita)
「Yes, this is absurd. So horizon is something like this. It’s really vast. I can finally accept Ork-san’s claim that this planet is round.」
I put my head outside the window and watched the sea.
Now, let’s begin this sea voyage.
This time I was intentionally using the safe roundabout route. I planned to share the sea route I used to Zacharic.
If everyone knew about the safe route where spice could be obtained, the city’s economy would be energized.
I had earned enough from Ork Brand’s menchi katsu. I didn’t care even if spices appeared in the market.
Rather it would be the best if a cook somewhere created something like curry after getting their hand on spices.
「There is the smell of sea water.」
「I can see the shadow of fish. They look delicious.」
The two of them were enjoying the sea voyage.
Kururu was interested with the swimming fishes.
Fufufu, as I thought, the fishes attracted their attention.
I had added even more function to Orc Car in preparation of that.
「There is a button beside the chair where Tita is sitting right?」
「Yep, you mean the big red button with black and yellow stripes around it and a label that is written with warning to absolutely not push it right?」
「No, I mean the plain button below it. It’s fine even if you push the red button, but I think you’ll seriously regret it later.」
「Then don’t create something like that from the start!」
……Well, that was romance after all, so it couldn’t be helped.
「Anyway, push the plain button.」
「Yep, then, here I go.」
*Click* there was such sound……maybe.
The foot mat at the rear seat slid aside.
Then…….
「Ah, amazing, I can see the fishes swimming-」(Kururu)
「What is this? The fishes in the sea are pretty!」
「No, I’m simply laying bare the hull of Orc Car.」
To lighten Orc Car, its frame used reinforced acrylic plate and composite material of magical metal. The material’s transparency was extremely high. Because of that I painted the material, but I intentionally didn’t cover the floor part at the back seat with paint.
In addition I also put a little handiwork so the material could serve a function as a lens, so you could clearly see into the water.
It wasn’t something created for functionality, its use was simply for sightseeing. It was a pointless function just to make women happy. A masterpiece where the sense of this thoughtful mister orc was shining bright!
「This is fun.」
「I can watch this forever. Besides, this will be the best if it’s used for fishing. Because we can fish while watching inside the water.」
「That might be nice. When it’s time for lunch, how about we stop the car, fish, and then we will cook the fish that we catch to eat right away?」
It was just a simple thing, but Orc Car also had a kitchen.
We could use as much water as we wanted using magic.
「Ah, that might be nice. But, I don’t know which fish is consumable.」
「Some fishes are unexpectedly poisonous after all.」(Kururu)
「Fuh, you can just leave that to me. There won’t be any problem if I use analysis magic.」
I’d analyze whether the fish could be eaten or not and then I’d cook it skillfully no matter what kind of fish it was.
「I can’t wait.」
「I’ll catch a big one.」(Kururu)
「Yeah, do your best.」
Orc Aquarium, I’m glad I made it. ……I cut corners with it though.
「Rurine-chan also wanted to come with us didn’t she?」
「But it’s really busy being the princess.」
Yesterday I went by myself to Rurine’s place quickly to invite her, but she said something about having a meeting with other country and refused the invitation regretfully.
And so it couldn’t be helped. I had sex with her before going back right away.
……It sounded really bad when I worded it like that, but, yes, it was that, it was consolation sex. Rather I did that for Rurine’s sake. Yep.
「Let’s bring back a lot of souvenir to make it up for her.」
Even royalty couldn’t so easily obtain merchandises from overseas.
It would surely make her happy.
「Let’s do that. Umm, when that bigger button was installed, Ork-san also installed a device together with it. That’s the only thing that you didn’t allow me to touch, because you said it’s dangerous.」
「Well, that thing is really dangerous after all.」
「I wonder why. When I saw that yellow and black stripes, it makes me really want to push it. Hand, my hand is moving by itself.」
It seemed that thing was the same even in another world, that kind of button would make anyone wanted to push it.
Its design was devilish.
It was hard to understand why such design was used for dangerous thing.
「I think it will be fine if it’s around here. We have come to a really wide open space. Well, I think this car won’t break. If it was before this, there was also a risk of serious damage to the car from that button.」
It was a very wonderful device if you didn’t use it in the wrong situation.
Though if you used it in the wrong situation, it would be simply suicidal.
「……Gulp」
「Kururu, it’s better if you don’t. It’s something that even Ork called dangerous.」
「B-but, this design, my curiosity toward the device……uh, uh, hand, my hand won’t stop. And click.」
As expected from Kururu. She properly said click. Even though I never taught her about it, it was amazing that she managed to arrive at that mental state.
*Gishi gishi*, a strange sound cried out. In addition there was the sound of inhaling air and sucking water. The car frame was shaking from the heightening magic power.
「This is, the wind and water mana are increasing.」
「Hee, I thought that you can only sense wind spirit, but you can also sense water?」
「Since I made love with Ork……this isn’t the time for that, this is, I have nothing but bad premonition.」
「I’ll take care so nothing happen.」
First the propeller changed shape to become like a pole.
Because if its shape stayed like before, it would receive unbelievable amount of water pressure and broke.
The device that was attached outside sucked in a lot of air, generated oxygen, and compressed it. In addition water was also sucked in, it was decomposed to secure hydrogen, and it was also compressed.
And then they were mixed in with a certain ration.
And then…….
Boom.
「UWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA」
「KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA」
The screams of the two overlapped with the explosive sound.
This button’s function was to activate the external booster for emergency evasion.
It sucked in oxygen and hydrogen and used them as fuel for jet engine.
The ship flew in the air.
「W-why is the ship flyiIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING」(Kururu)
「You see, at first I installed it for rushing on water efficiently, but thinking carefully, it will be faster to just fly using this.」
It was idiotic using jet engine to push ship that was floating on water. In addition it was dangerous. There were a lot of obstacles on water.
But, there wasn’t any obstacle on the sky. In addition the air resistance was weaker than water resistance!
Well, that was just an armchair theory though. When the speed surpassed the speed of sound, even air resistance would become destructive.
Although I designed the Orc Car to be somewhat aerodynamic, it was still a car. Its design prioritized carrying capacity and riding comfort, so it couldn’t have form like airplane. The frame might break from this speed.
The frame creaked unpleasantly.
「Is this alright? The frame is screaming-」(Kururu)
「It’s just barely alright. This sound is the sound of the frame in the verge of breaking. It’s not the sound of the frame breaking. It will be fine for one more minute.」
「That’s totally no good!」(Kururu)
「No, the culprit is already at its limit first. Look.」
The compressed hydrogen was used up in just several seconds. The jet engine stopped. Or rather, this device was a poorly made article that could only be used once.
Fumu, as I thought it couldn't endure the load.
I thought that it would be able to barely endure it based on my calculation of its toughness, but it seemed that the load surpassed my calculation.
It was too bad, even though I had used really expensive material for it.
But, this might be passable from the perspective of a boy’s romance. Emergency booster had to be limited to one time use!
The acceleration stopped and the car decelerated. The air resistance was reduced and the creaking sound settled down.
「Fuu, I can feel relieved for now with this.」(Kururu)
「But, the car is falling……」
「Please wait a second, this altitude, although the speed is decreasing, with this speed……the material won’t be able to endure if it hit the sea surface!」
「You have really grown Kururu. You can calculate the material toughness instantly like that.」
「Why are you acting calm!」
「I’ll do something about it with human effort from here after all.」
I made the wind spirits worked. I formed a soft wind slide at the front and the car frame rode on that. The kinetic vector was turned from heading below to advancing forward.
Because the downward vector had mostly vanished, the car leaped to the front at the same time of the landing and cut through the water. There was almost no recoil from the landing. The car skipped several times on the water before it stopped at the end.
The propeller was deployed once more and Orc Car switched into normal operation as though nothing had happened.
「So the emergency booster functioned properly……it broke from just functioning but, I got a good data from it. It needs improvement. Or perhaps I should simplify it even more and use it as disposable item from the start.」
「Fuu fuu, as I thought that button shouldn’t be pushed!」
「Why are you angry at me? It was Kururu who pushed the button.」
「Uuu, that’s, I’m sorry.」
Kururu shrunk into herself.
「It’s the one who created this who is crazy.」
「But wait a second. For example, what if the legendary giant squid, Kraken suddenly appear on the surface and attack us? We won’t be able to run away without this you know?」
「There isn’t any case like that-」
「No, there is. Just what do you know about the sea Tita? In the sea, there are a lot of monsters that even I can’t win against.」
Tita fell silent.
Fufufu, a country bumpkin from an elf village could be tricked so easily.
「I-I see.」
「That’s how it is.」
「Umm, Ork-san, I used that emergency tool and broke it. I’m sorry.」
「Well, we will manage somehow. Besides we manage to traverse a lot of distance with that, so don’t mind it.」
I gave her the manly and kind orc smile.
「That smile irritate me……but, that’s, I’m glad if we can somehow manage. That is, Kraken isn’t it? What a big squid. It’s more than ten times bigger than Orc Car.」
Hm? Kraken? What was she talking about?
There was no way a giant monster like that existed.
I was just lying before this. Kururu could also joke around huh.
It was dangerous driving while looking elsewhere, so I looked forward.
And then what entered my sight was
A white mountain.
「Good afternoon.」
Hee, Kraken, so it really existed.
I’m surprised.
It would be instant death if you encountered something like this at sea.
Sea was really scary huh.
No wonder everyone was reluctant to do sea trade.
A tentacle stretched out.
The movement seemed leisurely, but due to its size, the tip moved in the speed of 200 km/hour. Furthermore it was still rapidly accelerating.
By the way, the speed of the torpedo that was said to have the greatest specs was 60 km/hour.
From there it could be easily understood just how absurd it was to reach the speed of 200 km/hour on sea.
「It can’t be helped, I’ll use Orc Car’s secret weapon, Ork Cannon.」
「This car has something like that!?」
Kururu’s eyes snapped wide open.
Fufufu, even Kururu who modified this car together with me didn’t notice with how cleverly I camouflaged it. One of Orc Car’s seven tools. The emergency boost had broken down and there were only six tools remaining though.
Anyway, first I’d turn that squid into grilled squid for lunch.
Everything else could be thought later.
